Step into history on El Moez Street, one of the largest open-air Islamic museums in the world, celebrated by the United Nations for its unparalleled wealth of medieval architectural treasures.

Meet Your Guide: Muhammad Swefy

"Welcome to the Land of Peace!"

I was born and raised right here in the heart of Islamic Cairo—the very birthplace of this tour. As a licensed, freelance Egyptologist and tour guide since 2017, I am deeply passionate about our history and obsessed with Islamic art and architecture.

For me, guiding isn't just about dates and facts; it’s about showing you Egypt through the warm, loving eyes of a local. My mission is to share fresh perspectives and inspire you with the beautiful energy of every place we explore.

If you appreciate life, love adventure, and want to truly experience the joy of Egypt, join me. Together, we will create lasting memories that you will carry in your heart and mind forever.

Please note that the guide can be another professional guide from my team without the Cairo Trips hat. It’s always preferable to contact your guide on Whatsapp for faster and easier communication and to make sure that you got the right guide :). 

Please avoid anyone who approaches you on the street.

By the way: the tour usually lasts more than 2:30 hours but I always like to promise less and provide more therefore I decided to stick to state the duration as 2:30 hr but on reality it goes beyond expectations :)
